Just a white background ### 2/5 — Horrible Update *2026-03-12, version 6.1.601* Don’t like the latest update. Don’t like the radar color and layout, but most importantly the radar is very much delayed! Yes my app is up to date. It’s just not been good since the last update. Also it’s too fast when showing the last 24 hour radar..it goes into repeat automatically and does not even give me time to look at the details. Also, when the app is closed and reopened at another time, the radar opens up zoomed way out across 4-5 states and I have to zoom in to my area every single time. Please fix this to leave it where it was when it was closed. I’m very disappointed with the new update. The older one was way better and more viewer friendly. ### 3/5 — Retired *2024-10-02, version 5.15.418* Radar needs work ### 5/5 — Update the app before Tomorrow *2024-01-08* Tomorrow is a first alert weather day tomorrow so add more radar's besides the Sumter County Radar And I know that you will keep use informed ### 5/5 — Please add more Radar *2024-01-03* Please add more Radar’s to the sadel light not just Americus Radar please update the app again we need more radar's not just the Sumter County Radar ### 5/5 — Walb Weather App *2023-11-30, version 5.12.701* The app has been very helpful in scheduling various events and tasks. I chime in to other apps to view more detailed information for comparison. With all apps there’s more features that can be added. Ex. The more detailed it is the more useful. ### 5/5 — Please add more Radar *2023-11-21* Please add more Radar’s to the sadel light not just Americus Radar ### 5/5 — Richard Mckibben *2023-10-15* Good and accurate weather reports I appreciate that. ### 3/5 — Notice every time I get one I have to hunt thur the notification to see what it is *2023-09-19, version 5.11.503* Every time I get a notification ### 5/5 — I appreciate the accurate forecast from this app *2023-07-06, version 5.10.500* Thanks so much for sharing this information with us. It’s free, which others are not, it’s local which is appreciated! I trust it for truly accurate information every time. ### 5/5 — You always are whe *2023-01-23, version 5.7.301* E we are. Watching and looking out for us, telling Us where sour enemies are, and how to evade them, protecting us and our children; You are our own personal guard, like and Angel Of the Lord acampeth around those who fear Him, so you to friends and enemies or friends Of God alike. Thanks you all for watching over our children While we sleep in peace because you get up And go to work, before the storms wake up: May our God protect each and everyone Of you and your families, as you are protecting ours; Thank you servants of the Living God, From all of us, to all of yours. Amen ### 5/5 — Weather *2022-07-25, version 5.4.933* Great weather team I enjoy watching ### 2/5 — Great unless there is bad weather. *2022-03-09, version 5.4.933* App works great most days. However, when you actually need it due to rainy conditions or bad weather it suddenly can’t locate you or the storm. Every time there is bad weather or even just a light shower or two my radar and the forecast just comes up with question marks and doesn’t load so you feel like you are just sitting blind and you try to find another way to know conditions. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Weather is never accurate *2025-07-24, version 5.17.511* When your app says its going to rain there is never a cloud in the sky and when they say’s it’s going to be sunny there is always a thunderstorm. Your temperature is also always way lower than what it actually is and feels. I.e. your app is far more inaccurate than it is accurate from my own and other people i know’s experience ### 1/5 — WALB *2024-09-24, version 5.15.418* This app never works ### 1/5 — Wlwalker *2023-07-03, version 5.10.500* Not accurate more than half the time.

Delegating this App. ### 1/5 — Never accurate *2022-09-09, version 5.4.933* Can’t ever trust the rain chance might as well lick my finger and fill the wind ### 1/5 — The ads drive me crazy *2022-09-03, version 5.4.933* I despise the ads. I usually just close the app because the ads load way too long. Then I open my weather bug app ands guess what NO ADS! I ❤️ weather bug app!! ### 1/5 — Not good *2022-05-30, version 5.4.933* The channel 10 weather app is not as good as channel 10 claims it to be it has tons of problems like when looking at real time and future radar it will glitch and not show anything after the current time and it seems that they cannot keep it updated like it needs to be if it was not free you couldn’t pay me to use it into they get the problems fixed if they know how ### 1/5 — Need changes! *2021-05-26, version 5.3.503* Really would like to see High & Low Pressure on map! And dips in the wind streams!! ### 1/5 — Yolanda lied to me *2021-04-15, version 5.2.600* It was supposed to rain ### 1/5 — Directed too news room. Not whether.... *2021-04-15, version 5.2.600* Always one sided in politics. Never give credit where credit is due. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great app but need more Radars besides the Americus one *2025-10-09, version 5.17.711* I love the app but please add more radars besides the Americus one add for an example the Warner Robins one and the Tallahassee one or all of the radars.
